Kappa Gamma Pi Pledges Eleven Graduate Leaders Eleven seniors have been elected to membership in Kappa Gamma Pi, the national Catholic scholastic honorary society for women. Membership is granted by vote of the faculty and Senior Class for character, scholar ship, leadership and service. Those elected, who will receive the Senior Ball Set At South Shore; Berger To Play The graduating class of 1961 will present the Senior Ball, the only strictly formal dance of the year, on Saturday, June 3, in the Colonade Room of South Shore Country Club. The dance, which is open to the en tire student body and their friends, will begin at 9 p.m. to the music of Ralph Berger's 11-piece band. Pre ceding the dance, a dinner for seniors and their dates will be held at 7 p.m. MARY ELLEN KELLY, senior class social chairman and general chairman of the dance, has announced that the theme is white and gold, but at the request of the seniors it will be called the Senior Ball rather than the White and Gold Ball as originally sug gested. This is the first Senior Ball in recent years to be held on a Saturday rather than a Friday night. The reason for the change is that many seniors pre fer a meat to a fish dinner and also because Saturday provides a longer time for recuperation from exams. BIDS FOR THE SENIORS' dinner and dance are 13.50 per couple while bids for the underclassmen are 5. Bids will go on sale in thelounge May 15 and discount cards for tuxes will also be available upon the purchase of a bid.
